Or can you be sure it hasn't already been supplied such warheads by Russia or China through Iran?

Yes, because you'd have to be a moonbat to believe that. China, and especially Russia, have a little problem with muslims themselves. They're not going to hand nukes over to the crazy man because they might end up in Chechnya.

No, they play the game where the US does all the heavy lifting, and they do all the profiting.

Then why is Putin so all-fired eager to help the Iranian "peaceful atomic energy program?" Short term money alone can't compensate for the damage a Chechnyan suitcase nuke would wreak.

Exactly right, I believe.

Yep. Iran and North Korea are "useful idiots" to Russia and China. They provide a nice little thorn in the side of the USA while Russia and China profiteer.....

China has sent materials to NK for refining plutonium out of spent reactor fuel. Russia has thousands of technicians in Iran this instant working in the Iranian nuclear sector. They are as reckless as you please, and the rational restraint you ascribe to them is entirely between your own ears and a fantasy.
